At last and at FIRST the focal oint of all the state
election, the New Delhi /Delhi state elections are round the corner.What would
be the situation that one could call it the catch-20 situation and what would
decide the fate and the other things that could and would decide the winners ad
the loers
There are three parties in the fray.Ofcourse the gigantic
will be the AAP( aam aadmi Party ) which will use all it’s might to win it as
they are the rulers of New Delhi. There will be the second one that is ruling the country and that is the BJP. Last
but not the least there is Congress but one hardly is concerned about that
party It was a ZERO it will end at four this time according to me calculation
Election 2015 and
it’s aftermath
The elections of New Delhi in 2015 was on a plank and a
platter that Anna Hazare laid it for the AAM Aadmi party. The fever and the
repercusiions that it carried and the wave of sympathy that it carried for Mr
Arvind Kejriwal it gave the AAP and resounding win and a ground for
establishment on a platter.Based on the same, the AAP tried to truncate the
others on the same principles in the nook and the corner of the country but it
failed.People all over India were not receptive to the activist AAM and it did
not find any favour from the places in the nook of the country.
AAP carried some goodwill in 2015 and the media the
ANTI-MODI one as always did get into the
business to help the AAP in many a way.That helped them
WRONG-::
There was a wrong the BJP did it in 20-15. If it held the
elections atleast SIX months before along with the Haryana elections in 2015
the results of the Delhi state elections would have been different.However it
held it and went in a way to hold it a bit longer after the Anna Hazare
agitation and that changed the complexion of the game and the result were not
the same for the BJP . However the euation now is not as the same as in 2015
but still the BJP is not on the platitude of being sensed and termed as strong.
Election:: LAST TIME
The New Delhi election last time saw a wave of Anna Hazare
and the crusader in Arvind Kejriwal that the people believed that something new
is in the offing in the annals of the Indian politics.More than a politician Mr
Kejriwal was more than an ACTIVIST.This and that plank of his activism held the AAM at Bay and
kept the others far away. To an large extent the ANTI-MODI media as always, did
help him. That belief of the people that something new is coming to the Indian
politics did give him 67 seats out of the seventy
However the notion since the last five years have changed.It
has not changed by say 100% but it has changed to a large extent. The local
issues are the one’s which the people would take into consideration and the
local issues have not been addressed properly.That is seen.To add to the
coutourie of the AAM the party has beautifully played the Jamia card, the JNU
card and of late the Shahhen Bagh card but the repulsion that the gamut’s saw
now has nullified those gamut’s and it can be assumed that once the elections
gets over the Shahhen Bagh also will get over
Pallets and bullets are two different things and that needs
to be encountered in a different manner and the bullets now will decide the
issue at Shaheen bagh Enough is enough and the time has come for the Government
to say to the Shaheen bagh insane’s- EITHER VACATE OR WE WILL VACATE
BULLETS ARE NOT THE BREAKFAST AT ALL FOR ANYTHING BUT TO BREAK IT
FAST AT TIMES THE BULLETS OUGHT TO BE USED TO CIP THE WING That is the need of
the hour.
Anyway the local issues are what would decide the Delhi
elelction this time and let us analyse some of it
A ) . Drinking Water-::
Miserable and miserably the Delhi Government has failed to
come up on this siiue.Delhi is devoid of pure and healthy water that may be
used for drinking and that could be used for washing etc. The river Yamuna is
full of dirt.The Yamuna cleansing was the original part of the job that the
Delhi Government needed and should have
done that in a sweeping manner but they failed.In this matter the Delhi
Government should have approached the Central Government to jointly take this
one as a mission but they did not do that . That has marred the chance to
cleanse Yamuna and it does not augurs well for the state.
B). Agricultural Problems-::
Be it the supply of agricultural water to the petty farmers of the Delhi-Haryana and
Delhi-UP border, the Delhi Government completely has been a total flop in tnis
matter. Again if there was any need for the farmers to be provided the transportation and a mean of communication
to carry their agricultural produce to the market to seel it in either of the
Primary, Secondary and the Tertiary market it failed. The Kejriwal Government
just did not apply any sense on this matter and the BJP too it seems does not
have any sence to apply on this matter THIS
IS AN AREA THAT REQUIRES THE GOVERNMENT HEAD TO APPLY AND COME OUT WITH A SOLUTION
C ) >
Agriculture Information and News-::
Arvind Kejriwal in his FIVE YEARS has COMPLETELY
failed to come up with an AGRICULTURAL
COMMITTEE assisted by a local TV or a local agency that could provide any means of communication when it boiled to
the farmers in terms of anything that could be advocated as FARMERS INFO through the media.
This could have been a GREAT source of help to the PETTY
FARMERS.The market info could have helped them to sell their produce at a
better prices and also to chalk up their selling strategies but he as a Chief
Minister has completely failed in his attempt to do that.
D ) > Local Transportation-::
A COMPLETE WHIMSICAL
& CONFUSING IDEA. FEEBIES in the
buses and freebies in terms of the tickets at the state run local buses will
only SHATTER the economy of the state .Freebies in the long runs only harm
the economy and it breaks the backbone of the revenues in terms of it’s
collection and assimilitations in the coffers of the state. FREE- this has
BROKEN the spinal cords of every economy in the long runs and the deficit
budhetting is something that takes place in the long run. I can understand if
the free tickets were given to the widows of the Police and the Jawans, if
those wewre given to those poor who go to the tuitions to study or those
impoverish that really needed it
What is the fun of giving it to everybody and especially
those who can afford to pay and travel in the bus.This cannot be taken as a
something that Mr Kejriwal has done to
justify the needs if that be. Delhi needs more local buses and the metro needs
to be diverted to those places where it has not reached or covered the places
to make the commuters feel easy and to ease out the transportation better.
Delhi needs to roads to be far even and far wider to move on.Mr Kejriwal has
failed in these matter though he may not admit the same.
E)>.
Environment
Environment
pertains to CLEAN QUALITATIVE AIR AND DRINKING WATER. Delhi has never
been the same since 1989 in this matter.There have been the Government that has
come and that has gone but the overall condition of Delhi in these two matter
has gone from bad to worst and now it stands at even worst than the worst. The
quantum of poisonous air that prevails at Delhi is perhaps the worst in the
world.It can beat even Karachi in that matter and the quality of the drinking
water is perhaps the worst..
Delhi needs at least FOUR MAN-MADE –LAKES and atleast 10
GREEN-PARKKS with tall trees and flowers at places. Unless done the Delhites will
not be able to survive for a longer duration of times. Delhi badly requires an
inept and a proper handling that relates to the quelling of mosquitoes and the
useless insects that erupts out in the evening that kills the peace of the
people.
F ) > Sanitation-::
This is the area
where Mr Arvind Kejriwal and Delhi have completely failed.Just go to any lanes
and bye-lanes.You would be surprised to see the filth, the girth, the dirth and
the stinks that the water throws out when I speak of this.The condition is
absolutely horrendous to speak and to imagine of it in any case.
First of all the drains are not cleaned in the manner that
it should be, secondly the drains are so narrow and so open that the water does
not flows to the place that it needs to flow and lastly the water are scattered
in and around from these drains. It causes dirts, and it breeds mosquitoes.Such
a poor form of drainage really speaks all that bad and very bad about the
PUBLIC HEALTH ENGINERRING of Delhi. In this aspect of HYGIENE the Government of Delhi has failed.
G)> Electrification
Mr Kejriwal might
BOAST of many and many freebies that he is supplying to the people of Delhi in
terms of elelctrification and power supply
Have you ever seen it and noticed at Delhi.The electrical wrires
at the NOOK and the bye-lanes hangs in an manner that it can kill anybody if
any heads touches it by mistake. Five years have rtolled over, he should
have taken the cognizance of these
things and should have tighten it’s grip on the same. There are innumerable
transformers that have become too old for their use.these should have been
replaced with the newere one’s.The hanging wires should have been drawn to being tight and not hanging over the head.The
AAP as a Government has completely failed.
H ) > Use Of
The School And College Premises for imparting coaching and tutorials
The space available at all the Government school and
Collegers at Delhi could have been used for imparting free coaching in the late
evenings to the night hours at Delhi to those who needs tuitions and coaching
to move up and upscale their studies.
This could have been an MODERN
way of thinking and could have been an addd privilege that could have been
served to the poor students by the Delhi Government.They miserably failed in
it’s attempt to do it and this is what the BJP now should think in terms of
adding to their points while addressing the people especially the students
i). Imparting the
classes to inject the skill development programme
The premises of the schools and the Government run colleges
could have been used for imparting the
skill development programmes to those who could have been benifitted from
it.For example the art of stitching, embroidery, classes for cooking etc to
cite as an examples, after the schools and the colleges that are manned by the
State Government, could have been used for these skill enhancing and other such
allied programmes. It could have benifitted the poor and the needy and some
avenues of self employment could have been raised.The Delhi Government under
Kejriwal has completely failed in these missions
j). Water
Preservation and consumption
New Delhi and Delhi in India stands FIRST in the WORLD where
the water is WASTED to it’s maximum Delhi consumes the most of thje water only
to waste that. The Delhi Government should have focused in it’s mass scale
programme about imparting the modules of water conservartion and the
conservation od used water which could be utilized in some other means so as to
conserve and save the pure and fresh water
Delhi has the most number of apartments in India. The water
conservartion and it’s ytechniques in the apartments could have been useful as
to save the pure water for consumption and usage of the used water to recycle
it for using it for say car washing, or watering the gardens etc. The Delhi
Government should have taken an all out mass programme towards that and could
have initiated programmes to educate the people for that.It did not do it and
that is a failure of the Government
H ) . Animal
Preservation and Husbandary
Mr Kejriwal talks
so brilliantly about provision of health care to the needy at the Government
hospital.However he draws a FLAK when it comes to the provision of the
healthcare to the animals especially the bovine natured one’s and the likes of
the cattle, the fowls etc
It is here and it is this arena where he has failed
miserably and this is an area where the Government has to take the initiative
to address the issues. Animal care has become an important tol that adds to the
contribution of the state and the Government cannot wash it’s hand away from
the same.
J). Power
Generation
Sixty Five percent of the state of Delhi either runs on the
generators or it suffers from darkness.The condition is very bad when the
summer season is on . It is here that the Delhi as a state has to rethink of
modeling itself as a self-generating
power in terms of the state.
Overall the state has not seen anything spectacular in it’s
last five years of rein except that it has provided FREEBIES in some area and
it has specifically provided some security by deputing some bouncers in the
places where ther ladies go out on a move to do some work
This cannot be considered as anything spectacular. Ofcourse
the health care system might have been an added advantage and some freebies
given moight have added to the repertoire of Mr Kejriwal Overall the situation is not that
good and the needs that are commom like the power, elelctricity, sanitations,
drainage and safety are not that which could be termed as good
These are the areas where the BJP in the next few days ought
to HOWL and BARK to press the AAM to gain the utmost advantage
Writig these the AAM too will pick up the points and work it
to their advantage but I have purposely written it here for the BJP to
pressurize them for talking correctly and pressing their point with leverages
and thrust rather than shouting and wasting their energy for nothing
As it stands the AAM party stands at the upper echelon of
gaining the advantage in this elelction but a purposeful and a well drawn talks
while addressing the people can overturtle the AAM’s applecart and put them to
the zone of frenzy
How do they do it is their concern but these points are the
WEAKNESS and the LACUNAE of the AAM. BJP play your carfds properly now.

Beautifully crafted and an interesting article to read . It is more of a negative voting for the BJP that the AAP could win at Delhi. Also the BJP was never in contact with the people at Delhi.That made the difference
ReplyDeleteThis article really analyses the perspectives in a very correct manner and the analysis are very correct and true . The author knows the inticacies of the GDP as well as the politics that is related with it
